Peluso P-280 Large Diaphragm Tube/FET Hybrid Condenser Microphone

The Peluso P-280 is a cutting-edge hybrid microphone that delivers ultra-high resolution, crystal-clear detail, and the warmth of classic vacuum tube tone — all wrapped in a sleek, all-black brass body. Designed for today’s most demanding recording environments, the P-280 pairs a unique tube/FET combination amplifier with Peluso’s advanced dual back-plate capsule design for breathtaking clarity and extremely low self-noise.

Inside, a vintage-style EF95/5654W pentode vacuum tube shapes the tone with warmth and depth, while the FET stage ensures maximum detail and the quietest noise floor Peluso has ever achieved in a tube mic. Whether you're recording vocals, strings, percussion, or powerful amplifiers, the P-280 handles it all with assertive gain and a 149 dB SPL rating — making it a versatile, top-tier mic for professional sessions.

With 9 selectable polar patterns controlled from the MX-56 power supply, the P-280 adapts effortlessly to any studio setup, from omni to cardioid to figure-eight. And like all Peluso microphones, it features a heavy-duty 8-pin screw-on connector, designed to last a lifetime.
